Mr. Graham Doyle:

The reason for that is the prevailing prices in those counties mean that there is less of a gap in terms of the affordability challenge. People are finding ways to finance those properties at the level at which they are selling in those local authority areas. It is the 18 with the particular affordability challenges which have been set targets to try to deliver. However, if others have schemes to bring forward for approval by the Department in funding, they can do that.
